Antenna Setup

This menu is exclusively intended for service purposes and be used

to align the antenna in an emergency, if no measuring instruments are
available. The

key activates a search tone, the pitch of which cor-

responds to the signal strength - the higher the sound, the better the

signal.

In this menu, you can use the

The fi rst line is used to specify the satellite and the second line to

specify the transponder.

In the small box immediately to the right, the fi rst line shows the

polarisation of the received signal and the second line shows the

transmitted symbol rate.

The bars provide information about the strength (relative level) of the

signal and its quality. However, this information cannot be used to draw

any conclusions about the quality of the antenna system.

For operation with a rotor (DiSEqC™1.2), select “Motor/Goto 0°” “On”

in the third line.

In the next line “Move/Save”, you can align the antenna to the East or

the West. The optimum setup can be viewed in the “Level” bar chart.

In the “Set Limit Value” line, you can set the outermost aiming point

(limited by a wall or another obstruction) in a Westerly or Easterly

direction.

Always read the operating manual supplied by the rotor manufacturer

(this applies in particular to settings different from those described

above).
